Organisation profile

At the Institute of Management and Organization (IMO), we see it as a great responsibility to help people create, manage, and develop organizations. This includes the management and development of people working in organizations. Moreover, we believe that the management and development of organizations and people must comprehensively feature economic, ecological, social, and psychological aspects. Only such a comprehensive perspective allows to develop organizations and enrich people's lives in a meaningful manner.

Topics

At IMO, we want to achieve a better understanding. Specifically, we want to advance the theoretical understanding of managing and developing organizations and the people in the organizations by conducting research on strategy, management, entrepreneurship, innovation, and HR management. Furthermore, we believe that only research in line with the highest academic standards leads to scientific advancements that are meaningful for developing people and organizations.
